Mindless project is a mind mapping tool.

KMindless is a mind mapper for laying out ideas/structures.

Files and notes can be associated with nodes within the mind map.

A todo list can be set up with each item in the list having an associated mind map.

gnommind project is a Master Mind game for GNOME.
gtkmmind or gnommind (the GNOME version of gtkmmind), a simple but addictive game for Linux, inspired from the Master Mind game.
You must guess a color code by trying different combinations.
Main features:
- The configurable parameters are the number of colors and the number of pieces to play with.
- Gaming explanations are provided in the game.
- The ChangeLog is available.
- This program is licensed under the GNU General Public License (GPL) and may be freely distributed.

Blended provides a simple theme designed to blend in with the menu bar to create a smooth appearance.
The theme was designed with the Clearlooks GTK2 theme in mind, but works well with other themes that have plain menu bars.
Inculdes 4 theme variations:
- Blended ( Top corners rounded)
- BlendedDoubleRound (Top and bottom corners rounded)
- BlendedSmall (Smaller window butons)
- BlendedSmallDoubleRound
NOTE:
If you want all 4 variations make sure they are all coppied to your themes folder as at least for me installing through theme preferences only installs the last theme.
Enhancements:
- Looks much better with darker GTK themes
- Windows have a slightly beveled appearance
- Title padding reduced on regular button size themes
- focused text no longer etched
- other minor changes

PureAdmin is a graphical utility used to administer and monitor your PureFTPd ftp server.
PureAdmin is a graphical tool used to make the management of PureFTPd a little easier.
PureAdmin project features a user manager, viewing of activities (uploads/downloads) and logfile viewing (updated in realtime).
It is not dependant on GNOME (only GTK+ 2.x) and it is developed with the GNOME Human Interface Guidelines in mind.
Enhancements:
- Fixed a startup-notification bug
- Fixed some bugs with the notification icon
- Added new tango based icons in various sizes.

SMSLink project implements a client/server gateway to the SMS protocol (short messages on the mobile phones).
It requires the use of dedicated hardware (a serial GSM module).
Both SMS emission and reception are supported, either in text-mode or in PDU-mode.
It also includes an SMS to eMail gateway module.
The server runs under Linux and FreeBSD and supports interactive mode via telnet.
The command-line client already exists for Linux, FreeBSD, Solaris, HP-UX, and Win32.
A basic Web interface is also provided.
Main features:
- The use of TCP/IP sockets for communication between client and server means that the application is network-aware from the start and that deploying it over a WAN (or across the internet) is a piece of cake. Expanding it as well, since writing additional clients for it is possible on any platform supporting sockets. Various ports of the client to Win32 are now available.
- The server process has a command-line interface connected to the socket, making it possible to use it interactively from a telnet session (only line mode telnet supported at the present time - see server/BUGS and server/TODO in the sources directory). This feature is of enormous help when troubleshooting or debugging.
- The command-line interface is backed by a parser written in lex and yacc (flex/bison, actually), which makes the language relatively easy to extend.
- The server was built from the start with the idea of multiple GSM modules in mind. Adding a line to two configuration files (and connecting the hardware, of course) is all there is to using two modules instead of one. The number of modules supported by the server is limited by the hardware only.
- The choice to use specific hardware (the serial GSM module), although limiting the general-purpose use of this application, allows for some very usefull features, the most prominant one being the ability to receive SMS messages as well as send them. This feature is now implemented (as of version 0.41b). Once downloaded from the GSM module, those messages can either be stored in an inbox file or fed through an external program or script, or both.
- By sitting straight on the GSM network, the use of the GSM module offers an advantage that far outweighs its cost : provider independance. The ability to send and receive SMS might be limited in some way or another by the level of your subscription, but all providers should offer a standard way of doing it. No "provider-specific driver" is required in this case. Whats more, all SMS routing aspects are being taken care of by the GSM network itself. Caution is advisable when choosing the provider though, as some of them might place some restrictions on routing to and/or from outside networks (e.g. Mobistar and Itineris*) or lack the implementation of some advanced features of the SMS protocol such as "point-to-point SMS" or "SMS-back" (e.g. Proximus through the UCP interface*).
- As of version 0.48b, initial support for PDU mode and the creation of a "driver-like" capability table for the GSM modules means that most module brands on the market could be supported with little effort. This "driver" approach also garanties that youll be able to mix and match different brands and models of modules on the same server with no problem. Support for PDU mode also opens up a new batch of options, like setting the validity period for a message, potential support for non-standard alphabet, binary content delivery to the mobile phone (logos, tunes, etc. ?) and more.
- A full-fledged access control mechanism allows you to specify precisely which client machine or subnet should be allowed to connect and which shouldnt. The access control is IP-based (as opposed to user-based) and defaults to "deny" for increased security. When the situation doesnt require any access control, the whole thing can be easily disabled by the administrator.

libt2n project is a C++ library for inter-process communication (IPC) with an additional code generator (libt2n-codegen).
Before inventing our own IPC library, we checked a lot of other IPC frameworks like CORBA, D-BUS and ICE. But they werent easy to use (you need many lines of code to export or use a method, let alone good error handling) and did not allow passing complex C++ objects like vectors, maps and your own classes. To get all this we had to develop our own framework.
Heres a list of goals we had in mind while developing:
- easy to use, mimimum of code-lines needed to export and use methods
- handles complex C++ structures like maps of vectors, etc.
- passes exceptions from the server back to the caller
- easy integration into autotools and pkg-config
Of course we had to limit the feature set, so libt2n currently has these restrictions:
C++ only
- Synchronous, blocking, no callbacks
- no server-side objects, just functions you can call
- no threads or multiple server processes for handling multiple requests at once
Communication between client and server is currently done using Unix domain sockets (named pipes) or TCP. But the library is designed transport-independent, so it can be expanded to shared memory or other mechanisms.
Serializing all the complex objects is done with Boost serialization.

KLone-DevKit is a full-featured development kit for developing custom applications based on KLone. KLone-DevKit was thought and designed with a learn-by-example paradigm in mind.
The developer is guided through the creation and release of his/her own KLone application via a range of real use case examples.
The package is also a good starting point for those who want to create an easy and complete KLone development framework from scratch or simply those who want to start hacking on a .kl1 file without the hassle of creating a custom build environment.
Enhancements:
- A new demo application (pxaregs-gui) has been added to control, via a Web-based AJAX interface, PXA255/PXA270 CPU registers.
